Diplomatic community apprised of Kashmir situation 

Islamabad, February 04, 2023 (PPI-OT):In order to raise awareness among global community about the human rights abuses by Indian troops in the Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK), Jamaat-e-Islami organized a seminar Kashmir: Knocking at World’s Conscience. The seminar was attended by diplomats of Norway, Malaysia, Turkmenistan, Germany, Kyrgyzstan, Afghanistan, Russia, Azerbaijan and Iran. Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) Ameer Sirajul Haq discussed the Kashmir issue with diplomats and said Kashmir is a flashpoint for nuclear war and the settlement of the dispute is necessary to establish peace in the region.

The JI Ameer also appealed to the nation to mark the Kashmir Solidarity Day on February 5 with zeal and commitment. Talking to the diplomats, he said the Kashmir dispute must be settled according to the wishes of the Kashmiri people and the UN resolutions which granted them the right to self-determination. He said that peace in Central Asia could not prevail without the settlement of the Kashmir dispute. He said the people of IIOJK had long been struggling against Indian illegal occupation. He said the Indian government violated the mutual agreements between Pakistan and India and international laws by abrogating the special status of occupied Kashmir. Now, he added, New Delhi was bent upon changing the demography of the occupied territory.

Sirajul Haq said the world must take notice of it and put pressure on India to recognize the right to self-determination of Kashmiris. He appealed to the diplomats to convey the message to their concerned countries as it was their moral duty to raise their voice for humanity in trouble. He said India has turned the valley into the largest prison in the world. He said the JI would continue its efforts to knock the conscience of the world on the Kashmir issue.
